‘How to Make Money Making Movies – The Secrets of Becoming a Profitable Filmmaker’ Released Today

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) February 10, 2009 -- February 10, 2009 – El Monte, Calif. – WBusiness Books (www.wbusinessbooks.com), the business imprint for New Win Publishing, has released How to Make Money Making Movies – The Secrets of Becoming a Profitable Filmmaker, an insider’s guide from Hollywood independent producer and distributor Tanya York, who shares her secrets for movie success.

In her book How to Make Money Making Movies – The Secrets of Becoming a Profitable Filmmaker, York says a good story, good technique, or even a familiar face in the cast will not guarantee a movie’s financial success. A good strategy, however, can, and York offers up all the ins and outs, benefits and terrors of making successful independent movies.
“If you are someone who wants to lure investors (or self-invest) to produce your own movie, and you want to make a profit doing it, this book is for you,” said York, one of filmmaking’s top producers and distributors of high concept genre-driven independent films throughout the world.

How to Make Money Making Movies is about the financing, development, production, and release of feature-length films. In it you will learn about the “Forest Strategy” and how to apply it, how to develop a film “package” for success, and how to find the “anchor concept,” the hub around which that package will be made.
Hollywood producers, directors, writers and distributors interviewed for How to Make Money Making Movies include James Cameron, Mario Van Peebles, Josh Olson, William Wisher, Jr., Darryl Quarles, Pierre David, Paul Hertzberg, Lloyd Kaufman, Steve Wang, Carlos Gallardo and Ray Canella.

“Tanya York and [co-author] Randall Frakes give no quarter in revealing the realities and challenges facing filmmakers in this currently mad and fragmented marketplace,” William Wisher Jr., Hollywood screenwriter and producer, said. “Having written and produced more than a few major films myself, I can assure you that the joys, thrills, humor, and please-god-come-save-me-nightsweat-terrors of making movies are all honestly and accurately captured.”
